Dependents and Morphs question

Hi all,
I am browsing a bit through Squeak code, and encountered the following
thing which surprised me...
Quite some code (for browsers for example) makes dependents of morphs.
But since a Morph is not a Model, these dependents are all kept in the
DependentFields class variable on Object. My question is simply: why is
Morph not a Model?
PS: Note that I was thinking that quite a lot of dependents would be in
DependentsField, so I inspected it. Turned out that there were only a
couple, so this might be the answer to my question... Since I had quite
a number of browsers open, I thought there would be many more.
